Hinox Brothers: Difference between revisions

The {{Term/Store|Hinox Brother|Hinox Brothers|Series, TFH|plural}} are the {{Plural|TFH|Boss}} of {{Term|TFH|Hinox Mine|link}} and {{Term|TFH|Bomb Storage|link}}, which serve as the {{Plural|TFH|Sub-Boss}} of {{Term|TFH|Volcano|link}} and {{Term|TFH|Fortress|link}} respectively, in {{TFH}}.<ref name="Guide 20">{{Cite Guide|quote= |game= TFH|publisher= Prima|page= 20}}</ref> They are a trio of {{Term|TFH|Hinox|link}} siblings dressed in overalls and wearing helmets. Like the rest of their species, they throw {{Plural|TFH|Bomb|link}} as their method of attack. The {{Term|TFH|Hinox}} wearing orange is named '''Li'l Hinox''',<ref name="Guide 20"/> the {{Term|TFH|Hinox}} wearing purple is named '''Hinox the Elder''',<ref name="Guide 20"/> and the {{Term|TFH|Hinox}} wearing red is named '''Hinox the Eldest'''.<ref name="Guide 20"/>

In {{Term|TFH|Hinox Mine}}, the {{Plural|TFH|Links|link}} initially only face Hinox the Eldest. The {{Term|TFH|Hinox Brothers}} is battled on moving {{Plural|TFH|Mine Cart|link}} that circle around the {{Term|TFH|Boss}} {{Term|TFH|Stage}}. The {{Term|TFH|Hinox Brothers|display=Eldest Brother}} will throw {{Plural|TFH|Bomb}} at the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} whenever their {{Plural|TFH|Mine Cart}} come close. To fight the {{Term|TFH|Hinox Brothers|display=Brother}}, the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} must grab the {{Plural|TFH|Bomb}} he throws over and throw them back into his {{Term|TFH|Mine Cart}}, so that they will explode and damage him. The {{Term|TFH|Hinox}} can be stunned momentarily with the {{Term|TFH|Boomerang|link}}. {{Plural|TFH|Arrow|link}} shot from the {{Term|TFH|Bow|link}} will also damage him, although the damage is significantly lesser than the {{Plural|TFH|Bomb}}. {{Plural|TFH|Heart|link}} on the outer ledges of the {{Term|TFH|Stage}} can be collected with the {{Term|TFH|Boomerang}}. After the {{Term|TFH|Hinox Brothers|display=Eldest Brother}} takes enough damage, he will reappear with Hinox the Elder, each riding their own {{Term|TFH|Mine Cart}}. Both will throw {{Plural|TFH|Bomb}} at the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} simultaneously, and the pair are fought in the same manner as before. After one {{Term|TFH|Hinox}} is defeated, he will fall to his knees and stop throwing {{Plural|TFH|Bomb}}, allowing the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} to focus their efforts on the one that remains.

In {{Term|TFH|Bomb Storage}}, the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} face all three {{Plural|TFH|Hinox Brothers|display=Brothers}}, but initially face only Hinox the Eldest and Hinox the Elder. The {{Plural|TFH|Hinox Brothers|display=Brothers}} appear from balconies on the other side of a gap and throw {{Plural|TFH|Bomb}} at the {{Plural|TFH|Links}}. As the gap is too wide for the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} to throw their {{Plural|TFH|Bomb}} at the two {{Plural|TFH|Hinox Brothers|display=Brothers}}, the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} must instead use the {{Term|TFH|Gust Jar|link}} to blow the {{Plural|TFH|Hinox}}' {{Plural|TFH|Bomb}} back onto their balconies and damage them. After both {{Plural|TFH|Hinox}} are defeated, the doors to their balconies will close, and another will open, revealing Li'l Hinox.

Li'l Hinox will rotate between the room's five balconies. He throws giant {{Plural|TFH|Bomb}} capable of huge explosions at the {{Plural|TFH|Links}}, which inflict heavy damage if any of the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} are unlucky enough to be caught in one. He then laughs for a few seconds before his door closes, and reappears on another balcony. The giant {{Plural|TFH|Bomb}} are too heavy for the {{Term|TFH|Gust Jar}} to blow back; instead, one of the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} must place a smaller {{Term|TFH|Bomb}} onto the floor for another {{Term|TFH|Links}} to propel it into the {{Term|TFH|Hinox}}'s balcony using the {{Term|TFH|Gust Jar}}. As the battle progresses, extra doors will open to empty balconies in an attempt to trick the {{Plural|TFH|Links}}, and {{Plural|TFH|Hardhat Beetle|link}} will also appear on the {{Plural|TFH|Links}}' platform to try to push them off, though these can be defeated for {{Plural|TFH|Heart}} and {{Plural|TFH|Rupee|link}}. As the {{Term|TFH|Hinox}} takes more damage, he will increase his speed and more doors will start to open at once. After taking enough hits, the final {{Term|TFH|Hinox Brothers}} will be defeated.
